How am Earl Csln. Noner.

Warwick Castle which is one OF the
great federal castles Of England, afTordi
very handsome revenue To its present
occupant, the Earl Of Warwick, through
shilling admissions being charged To view
all except the private living apartments
The present Earl, writes a correspondent
of the New York World. is poor man
for one in his position. He has been
obliged to live quietly and husband his
resources TO do his best TO free this
property from the debts upon il when il
came to him The estate was loaded
with mortgages when he received IL.
His Oldest son, Lord Brooke, married
I lew years ago one OF the great heiresses
OF England. Locking back over the his
tory OF this family, l find that nearly all
OF It's financial successes have come
through the marriage of a rich young
woman. This heireSs who married Lord
Brooke Is spirited young lady who re-
fused the hand of Prince Leopold when

to within few years there was no ad-
mission fec charged at Warwick Castle.
Then the butler and the housekoeper
were permitted TO show people through
mt certain hours of the day, and they
were permitted To pocket the fees paid
them. The result was that these two
people accumulated a great fortune dur.
ing their 20 years service, and have now
set dp as m1gnates Of county kitchen
circles. The present Earl now takes tn 8
revenue 20 himself One OF the peculiari-
ties of this business is that the tickets of

grounds. There is strange avoidance
OF any apparent connection upon the part
OF the castle with the financial features
OF this transaction. At the porter's lodge
you are told that tickets can be bought
at the little humble house in the fendal
row, under the fofty battlements of this
most aristocratic abode of one of the
greatest peers Of the realm. You visit
tins house and there your money is taken
through little wicket, and in exchange
you are given ticket which entities

MORNING.

10! from out the Orient splendor
Comes tho day,
While about his chariot golden
SunbeamS play;
Dewdrops ON the meadow grasses
All alight,
Glinting i'm the yellow sunshine,
Diamonds bi light
From around the homely cottage
Where they creep.
Wake the purple morning glorics
From their sleep;
Waken roses fresh and dewy,
To the light,
Blushing from the winds carossos
Through the night
Listen 10 sweet nature music,
Mong the trees;
Singing bird and rustling lcaflet;
Humming bees
'Mong the scarlet honeysucklcs,
Robbers bold
Are they, with their loads OF treasure.
Yellow gold
And the fragrance Of the meadows,
Perfume rare,
Swecter than Cashmerian roses.
Fills the air.
Life again has slowly wakened,
Newly born,
And with every bud and blossom
Grects the morn.
